Part D Prescription Drug Coverage

MVP’s Medicare Advantage plans offer the convenience of both medical coverage and Part D prescription drug coverage together in one plan, and with one convenient monthly bill. Plus, with MVP’s mail order program, you can often get a three-month supply for the price of two!

Coverage in the Gap

If your total drug costs in 2019 reach $3,820, you enter the Coverage Gap:

With WellSelect and GoldSecure plans, you pay 27% for generic drugs and 25% for Medicare-contracted brands in the Gap.

With GoldValue, Gold PPO, and Preferred Gold plans, you pay $0 for Tier 1 drugs, and 37% for generic drugs and 25% for Medicare-contracted brands in Tiers 2-5.

Reaching the $5,100 Catastrophic Coverage Limit in 2019:

If your True Out-of-Pocket costs reach $5,100 in 2019, you reach the Catastrophic Coverage Limit and your cost for prescriptions is reduced to the greater of 5% or $3.40 for generics and $8.50 for brand-name drugs.

Note: If you do not join a Medicare Part D plan when you first become eligible for Medicare, or do not have coverage as good as Medicare’s, you may have to pay a penalty if you join at a later date. This penalty will apply for as long as you are enrolled in Part D coverage. Learn more.

For certain prescription drugs, MVP has additional requirements or limits on our coverage to ensure that our members use these drugs effectively and to help control drug plan costs. Learn more about our Covered Drugs.

You can ask MVP to cover a drug for a lower cost, remove a coverage requirement or limitation, or cover a drug that is not listed on the Formulary. This is called a coverage determination. Learn more about MVP’s coverage determinations.
